Private Party Menu

The Crane & Pelican serves classy comfort food in an 1851 river pilot home.  We have a beautiful private room, and you can book the whole restaurant.  Located in historic Le Claire IA, our location is ideal for weddings, rehearsal dinners, showers, bus trips, anniversaries, holiday parties, or any special occasion.

  • 25 or more guests will be limited to between 3-5 entree options.
  • Menu’s can include up to five courses; appetizers, soups, salads, entrees, & desserts.

We offer these Private Party Menu options.  Once you select your menu, we e-mail you a copy to approve. Your menu will be printed on the table on the day of your event.  If you don’t see a pre-set menu that you like, then we will be happy to create a special menu for you.  Contact Mandy for more information at (563)289-8774, or at mandyharv@gmail.com.
